In the main Stockbridge street (Raeburn Pl), The Store is an organic/farm produce shop that has really good herb baguettes, yoghurts and jams. I also really like Herbie - try their homemade hummus! As for Peckham and Mellis (cheesemonger on Kerr St), they're really nice but just the same as their Old Town stores. It's also good to know the greengrocer right by the post office on Raeburn Pl sometimes has unusual mushrooms or vegetables that can be difficult to find in other shops.<br /><br />If you want to eat out, Maxi's, Hector's and Hamilton's apparently have good food. The Stockbridge Tap has recently been refurbished (I think it now belongs to the people who own Black Bo's on the Royal Mile) and my friend described their chips as 'the best in Edinburgh'; I still have to try them though. The Blue Parrot on St Stephen St also does pretty decent Mexican food, although the quality isn't always consistant.<br />Oh, and of course try the Patisserie Florentin on NW Circus Place, and the sticky toffee pudding at the Bailie on St Stephen St (the best one I've ever had)!<br /><br />Finally, the Alba D'Oro on Henderson Row is supposed to be one of the best chippies in town, and the Cafe Angel and especially Circle Cafe on Brandon St are good places to crash on a rainy afternoon.<br /><br />Sorry I got a bit carried away, but I hope these will help when you move on this side of town!<br />-AdelineAdelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10283041403850294998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2022973677800835958.post-39989938313899859262009-08-12T02:49:51.377+01:002009-08-12T02:49:51.377+01:00Hi Adeline!

Definitely give Peter's Yard a try, and you might also like Falko in Bruntsfield if you haven't been there already.<br /><br />Do you have any Stockbridge recommendations? I'm moving to Comely Bank next month but don't know the area very well.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08171407006261100905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2022973677800835958.post-43951076246045558202009-08-11T16:46:19.733+01:002009-08-11T16:46:19.733+01:00Hello!

I love reading your reviews, must try that bread place at the Quartermile! (I'm always on the look for good bread, and I'm not satisfied with the Stockbridge delis anymore..)<br />-AdelineAdelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10283041403850294998noreply@blogger.com
